Ryzen 5 Build

[BigMunchiesGaming]

I plan on building a PC soon and I always loved intel but with specification of the Zen+ platform I want to build a ryzen system 

 

 

The question I have is their a difference between the Ryzen 5 2600 and 2600X

 

I plan on going  with a budget build so I decided on a Ryzen 5 but it there a difference in 2600 and 2600x Single Core and Multicore Core scores and what about gaming

[Cigano]

The 2600x is just clocked higher when you receive it. If you manually overclock the 2600 you will get similar performance to the 2600x if you can keep temperatures down

how is this pc for streaming/gaming? 

 

Will I get above 75+ FPS on new games with the ryzen and 1060 6gb 

 

If you want to change please note that I already have a HD so I just put the A400 120GB for a boot SSD

 

Merry Christmas!

 

PS the Ryzen 2600X is marked at 180 instead of 200 because I found it for 180 online new

I would get faster memory for sure. If you plan to overclock, then the 2600 is fine. It shows in your pcpartpicker that you got the 2600X for 180, if that's the case, keep it. If not, get the 2600 and get better memory.

 

I think you need faster memory for a Ryzen system. Even if that means going down to 8gb and upgrading to another 8gb later.

I found it online new for 180 so just change the ram to what like 3000?

-It will stream just fine. If you want better, I'd recommend going up to a 2700 or 1700

-Yes you should be just fine regarding fps with this build. If you get a display with freesync and a high refresh rate, even better (I swapped the gpu for a 580 so you can utilize that technology)

If you get 3000 I would aim for 3000 c15, that is c16. If you can get 3200 c16 that's also fine. I would aim for the 3200 but if you can't swing it the 300c15 I linked below should be fine.

So just need to get a faster memory speed?

Is this better? I also already have a hard drive so I don't need to add one

Yea, the thing is, is that Ryzen runs better with better memory, whereas with Intel, it doesn't matter. 3000 is the bare minimum I would get, but you also have to pay attention to the timings. If you get 3000 you want c15, 3200 c16, etc.. Unless you have the budget, then you aim for around 3200 c14. But you're fine with 3000 c15.

what is c15 and c16? and c14? I don't know what you mean by that?

That's better, and you found them cheaper than me, lol. You should be fine with that system. Also, I don't know what monitor you're using, but if you have Freesync on your monitor I would get the RX 580 over that 1060. Actually, I would probably get the 580 either way, unless you had a g-sync monitor.

Ok I send a link to the monitor.

Just google it if you're interested. I researched it for ever, and although I understand it, I'm not good at explaining it (maybe someone else can). I just know you want a faster RAM speed when it comes to Ryzen. Google Ryzen memory speed or something along those lines.

You don't need to google either, I'll just save you the time. What monitor do you have?

So get the RX 580:

It's cheaper and it's actually better, IMO, than the 1060, plus, with your monitor combination it will run a lot smoother than the 1060 will.
